Bicycles

Momentum Magazine issue 43 pushed to the web this morning. This issue includes a 2010 Gear Guide which includes my review of Sanyo's Eneloop bicycle. I'll post a little more about this bike here later, but for now: Mostly, it's a pretty cool electric bike. Butterflies and flowers optional.

The images were important. But a lot more was going on.
